Neutral point potential balancing control system and method of three-level inverter

Abstract

The invention relates to a neutral point potential balancing control system and method of a three-level inverter. The neutral point potential balancing control system and method are used for conducting effective balancing control over the neutral point potential of the high-power diode clamped three-level inverter and collecting the DC bus voltage of the three-level inverter and the neutral point voltage value of two capacitors on the DC side in real time, sending collected signals to two independent PI regulators to generate corresponding controlled quantities, determining the operating mode of the system and the corresponding on-off state of switching tubes according to the obtained controlled quantities, determining the neutral point potential by the way of meeting the requirement of the turn-off time ratio of switching devices at the same time, determining the constraint condition of a busbar voltage according to the sum of connecting time, and accordingly adjusting the duty ratio of two switching tubes in an improved three-level DC / DC module, and therefore the busbar voltage on the DC side is controlled so that the dynamic voltage-sharing process of two supporting capacitors on the DC side can be achieved. Fluctuation of the neutral point potential of the three-level inverter is effectively reduced or restrained ultimately, system performance is improved, and the responsiveness of the system and the stability of a three-level topology circuit are improved.
